Formatting Text and
Paragraphs
This chapter describes in detail how to modify the
appearance of text characters and paragraphs,
including creating lists and highlighting sections of
text.
Formatting Text Size and Appearance
You can do all text formatting using the Pages menus and the Inspector window, or
the Font panel. You can do basic text formatting using the commands in the Pages
menus. The items in the Font submenu of the Format menu allow you to make text:
 Bold or italic
 Underlined or outlined
 Bigger or smaller
 More tightly or loosely spaced
 Superscript or subscript
To make selected text bold, italic, underlined, outlined, bigger, or smaller:
m Choose Format > Font > [Bold, Italics, Underline, Outline, Bigger, or Smaller].
To make selected text a superscript or subscript:
m Choose Format > Font > Baseline > [Use Default, Superscript, Subscript].
To make selected text all uppercase:
m Choose Format > Font > Capitalization > [None, All Caps, Small Caps].
You can also do several of these tasks with a single click using toolbar buttons. You
can add the following buttons to the Pages toolbar:
 Superscript: Click to make selected text superscript.
 Subscript: Click to make selected text subscript.
